'To Rule History With God': The Christian Dominionist War On Abortion, Part I

4. Writers need to call this what it was called originally, and that is "Christian Reconstructionism."

Writers then would be forced to look into the major architect of this insanity, and that is Rousas J. Rushdoony (1916-2001), somebody who was totally crazy, but he ingeniously came up with the idea of couching his John Birch political paranoia with extreme Calvinism complete with being enamored with the Old Testament death penalties for all kinds of things. Fascism wrapped up in the Bible is what Rushdoony was all about. His poisonous ideas have done a lot of damage to Christianity, especially to the "evangelical" wing of it, and they threaten to destroy our country.

Writers call this "Christian nationalism," "seven mountains," "New Apostolic Reformation," "dominionism," but they are basically the same thing as or variations of "Christian Reconstructionism."
